\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "To-work DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "rate = 60 mph ; distance = x mi ; time = x/60 hrs
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "From-work DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "rate = 40 mph ; distance = x mi ; time = x/40 hrs.
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "time + time = 1 hr
\n" ); document.write( "x/60 + x/40 = 1 hr
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 3x = 120
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 120
\n" ); document.write( "x = 24 miles
